Jasmine and her wrapped present…

Last Friday was my nieces 1st birthday! I was having such a busy week at work that I forgot to buy wrapping paper. So it was time to get creative with what I had on hand.

Being that Christmas had just passed there were endless half used rolls of wrapping paper lying around. I decided to use the inside of the paper as my base. My other niece Mischa said she wanted to be my little helper for this restyle. So we got our creative minds together and got to work.

Here’s what we did…

– I cut up some scrap paper into different sized hearts
– I gave Mischa some paper doillies
– I then gave her little balls of blutac so she could stick the doillies and hearts randomly on the plain side of the wrapping paper
– We then took it outside and spray painted randomly all over the paper
– After it had dried nicely we wrapped Jasmine’s present ready for her birthday

It’s a wrap…

What do you think of our emergency restyle? I think it’s great and Mischa was an awesome little restyler 😉

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

It’s another happy Monday everyone! Last week we posted Amour’s brooch from her wedding bouquet.

Wedding Brooch Restyle Project

Being that tomorrow in Australia is the Melbourne Cup we thought we would go with the theme – so a restyled fascinator it is 🙂

Fascinator Restyle

Not the best picture – but Amour’s sister-in-law will be wearing it tomorrow for her day at the races – so better pictures to follow tomorrow 🙂 You may also notice that the brooch looks a little different – that’s because at the last-minute Amour couldn’t part with her brooch – but a substitute was found.

What do you think of our restyle project? Gotta love anything with bling and feathers – right?

This week we have a new item for you to give us some inspiration. A bunch of bangles from the markets. *walk like an Egyptian* Come on – you all had a Bangle song go through your head 😉

Bangle Restyle Project

Can’t wait to show you how we restyle these beauties. Please comment on any inspirations you wish to share with us…we’re always open to suggestions.

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

This is our Pinteresting challenge #5 for the Pin It and Do It Challenge.

The pin that inspired us on Pinterest is Polka Dot Nails.

So we gave it a go…we used a BBQ skewer to make the dots…Shout out to Michelle for doing Amour’s nails!

Polka Dot – The process

And here is our finished version…

Red and White Polka Dots!

We loved it so much we did it a little more in different colour variations – which one is your favourite? We also found an easier way to do the dots via this pin – DIY Nail Art Tools.

Polka Dots of Many Colours!

We are getting just a little obsessed with the different nail art tutorials out there – Just look at Amour’s new additions to her nail polish collection!
